Psoriasis journey: days 14 & 15

I missed yet another day, but for good reason this time. Yesterday, I got an early birthday present in the mail, an ice cream maker!!! I spent the evening making some delicious vanilla bean ice cream. I have been trying to upload the pictures I took, but my computer skills seem to be lagging at nearly midnight.

I will share the recipe I used though.
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
900 ml cream (non-UHT or raw if you can find it)
500 ml whole milk (unhomogenized if you can find it, raw is even better)
1/2 cup ground sucanat or maple syrup (I used the sucanat plus a dash of the maple syrup)
3 free range egg yolks
1.5 teaspoon vanilla
1.5 teaspoon arrowroot/tapioca starch/cornstarch (optional to give ice cream a bit more thickness)
1 vanilla bean - scraped down

Mix all the ingredients and make ice cream according to machine directions. Boom! Scrummy, delicious vanilla bean ice cream!

And here are the menus for the last two days:

Breakfast - millet with butter and maple syrup
Snack - apple
Lunch - Cod and a soft boiled egg.
Dinner - broccoli soup with cheese and ham

Breakfast - spelt pancakes with butter, maple syrup, and ice cream(loving the new ice cream maker)!
Lunch - lamb burger on whole wheat bun with white cheddar cheese, blue corn tortilla chips, vanilla bean ice cream with a tad bit of banana pudding(we had a bbq with some friends today).
Dinner - leftover steak and a bit more ice cream(I've got to make sure all the ice cream gets eaten before it goes bad ;-)
Evening beverage - orange flavored kombucha.

Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is knowledge of sin. Romans 3:20
